GTXMike Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Hi. My name is Mike. I purchased and started working with this software yesterday, love it its great and the whole idea is simply brilliant so thanks to devs and community for supporting this project. I do have a major problem though. As I want to act as a valued part of community, every time when Im adding something and it has wrong info / covers in DB or the game is missing completely I add it to the database. I added couple of games and some missing photos, after few hours they have been approved (received 3 votes), great! yeah? well no. For example. I added the game Bulletstorm Full Clip Edition on Windows with all the details and Box Cover Art, game was approved yet I still cant add to my lunch box as every time I look for it it shows no results, any suggestions? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil9000 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Hi there and welcome to the community. This isn't actually a problem, see the actual launchbox database is only updated once a day, so if your submissions have been successful they will be rolled into the update for that day, i believe it is 12am US time, so if it was accepted today the info won't be available until tomorrow. Also you will have to update your local metadata, you can do this simply by trying to add a game with no current data, if there is new metadata to be downloaded you will be prompted to do so. Hope that helps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it written somewhere in FAQ? If not maybe we should start making one to avoid pointless posts lol like this one hehe. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil9000 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 LOL, it's not a pointless post it's a valid one. We are currently in the process of upgrading the backend of the database, and when that is all complete all that info will be readily available there for users to read through. But it's still a work in progress and i'm afraid i don't have a ETA for that at the moment, but rest assured it is planned. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I managed to pull the stuff I added from DB no problem. Seeing it works great it only encourages me more to add new entries and mod existing ones. There is so many games without covers or wrong ones etc... wish could fix them all but will at least fix stuff I have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil9000 Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Cool, glad it worked out for you, and it's always great to have have new people adding to the database, the more people we have the quicker it will get populated, so Thank You for helping out there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
